Why can't I play video?

Our mission is to have as many people as possible enjoy the benefit of Endless OS, so we have made it available as a free download, and have pre-installed the following free-of-patent video codecs:

OGG Vorbis (.ogg)

OGG Theora

VP8/VP9 (.webm)

PCM (.wav)

MP3 (.mp3)

Unfortunately, some other video formats have patents and are not free, so we do not pre-install them on the free version of Endless OS. Starting from Endless OS version 3.0, Endless OS supports the ability to purchase and install new codecs that can support playback of the following media:

Note: Although computers with Intel, AMD or other X86 CPU can support Netflix after installing the codec upgrade, Endless Mini and other computers with ARM CPUs can’t support Netflix due to digital rights management.
